Two pair! :o  Wow!  The luxury to start the second half of the challenge with 4 tools, not to mention the chance of getting a Full house.  Nix now has the winning hand, the game is on!  :ahhh

High card with a Ace of club will yield us a Trad/folder to carry.  But that 6, 7, 8 looks promising... :popcorn:

High card with a King of spade.  We will start the second half of this challenge with a Fixie.  Q and K, 8 and 9, maybe trading in the 8 and 5 on Day 21?

A pair of 4, the diamond and spade will yield us a SAK and a Fixie to start with.
Just so I'm 100% clear: does the next round start with Day 14 or Day 15? The fixie will be an easy choice; the SAK will require some careful consideration.

If I pay five figures for something, it better have wings or a foundation!

The new round carry will start on Day 15 your local time.  :cheers:

I think I should have covered everyone in this round of dealings, but just in case, definitely give me a holler via pm if I did accidentally miss you... :pommel: :facepalm:

Good start everyone, many pairs and most high cards are royalties.  For now, Nix's hand is still in lead, but it ain't over till it's over, and everyone could trade in for new cards on Day 21.  The game continues... :popcorn: :tu:

I remembered taking the picture but somehow get it all mixed up, quick apology to Echotech, lucky I wasn't in charge of a diving boat.  Man, that'd be catastrophic, like in Open water.  :facepalm:

A high card with Ace of Spade yield us a fixie to start the second half with, a potential flush?

Spade(highest) > Hearts > Diamonds > Clubs(lowest)

Day 13
Picture of Fisher, his favorite toy and the Spirit as we close the first hand.

And what better way to bring in the 2 hand than campfire, whiskey, and listening to Madness.

Wait a sec...apparently my morning coffee is not strong enough, I have definitely managed to miss Stitchy too!  :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:  Sorry, bro!

Here we go:

High card Ace of diamonds, a little similar to Echotech's hand.  The high card give us a SAK to start the second half with. :tu:

I need to go do a system check to see whether I am still missing anyone, thanks Echotech for the reminder!  :cheers:

High card Ace of club, will start the second half with Trads/Folder.  But we do have a good shot for getting a Flush on Day 21...
Alan K's hand still reign.
This is going to take some serious thought.  Do I want to go with the new Hinderer or one of my traditionals to give them some love?

That reminded me about going back to my college couple years ago--with a couple of my old classmates, I felt like a dinosaur walking on campus.   I kept remembering how I felt old back in my college days, but now everyone looked so young it was unbelievable.

Nice!  A pair of Jack is now the best hand thus far!  The spade and diamond will give us a Fixie and SAK to start with.

I'll go with the Deluxe Tinker and the Mora Chisel knife.  :like:

Last day of having this trio at hand, I sure wish my new hand would grant me a cool combo to carry.

I was debating between the Hinderer Eklipse Lefty, GEC 91 and Buffalo Creek Jack.


I’m pretty sure it is going to be the Eklipse, because it is new.

Thanks Comis, I was hoping for some hearts... but a SAK good too  :tu:

Hmmm.... I'm debating between an Orig. Traveller (Climber without keyring), Yeoman or Farmer  :think:

Please remind me, I can exchange up to 4 cards next time?

Thanks Comis for the good hand.  I'm still looking for a heart though.  I don't think I've gone this long without a pliers based tool in at least a decade. :cheers:
